The Myanmar military regime imported $14.7 million in radar equipment in February, Russian customs data published on Monday showed, The Moscow Times reported.

Russian Defense Minister Sergei Shoigu agreed to supply Myanmar with Pantsir-S1 surface-to-air missile systems, Orlan-10E surveillance drones and radar equipment during a visit to the capital Naypyidaw in January.

It is unclear if the Russian radar equipment Myanmar imported in February was part of the January agreement, the article noted.
